Industrial Exhaust Fan

Types of Industrial Exhaust Fans

Here are the main types based on their design and application:

Wall-Mounted Exhaust Fans

Mounted on exterior walls.

• Ideal for removing hot air or fumes directly outside.
• Common in factories, storage units, and workshops.

Roof-Mounted Exhaust Fans

• Installed on roofs to draw air vertically.
• Used for large-scale ventilation like in warehouses and manufacturing plants.

Axial Exhaust Fans

• Air moves along the axis of the fan (like a propeller).
• High airflow, low pressure.
• Best for general ventilation in large spaces.

Centrifugal (Blower) Fans

• Air enters axially and exits radially.
• Higher pressure capability.
• Ideal for ducted systems and where airflow needs to overcome resistance (e.g., fume extraction systems).

Tubular/Inline Fans

• Installed inside ducts.
• Efficient for targeted ventilation or air extraction in specific zones.
